Lucian Bute vs. Glen Johnson fight/discussion thread

[Gandalf]

time for glen to retire, he's become delusional clearly

He just doesn't have it anymore. Very predictable and too slow with it.

There is no point in carrying on. Bute looked decent, but I pick half the super six guys to beat him.

The only guy from the Super 6 I'd pick against Bute is Ward.

Ill say Dirrell as well.

I thought about that too, but who knows what's up with Dirrell these days.

Yeah I know what you mean. I think Dirrell before the injury takes out Ward and Bute. Still think he won the Froch fight but thats a different story.

He definitely won the Froch fight. Dirrell has all kinds of skill, but he's been painted as a head-case. I don't know if that's fair or not, but I definitely see why people feel that way. I know that I view him as being mentally weak, even as I realize it's probably totally unjustified.

I'm a big Dirrell fan if you haven't noticed. It is hard being a fan. I can't really say that he's weak because I don't know the severity of the injury but I do feel that he did a little bit of acting and that he didn't want to fight Ward who is a good friend. It seems that way.

Dirrell has been in the gym and from what I gather is training for a tune-up fight in the foreseeable future. He was brought in the George Groves camp for Groves' preparation for DeGale and tweeted a black eye that Groves gave him. He said Groves was very good too.

Put it in perspective though. Compare Bute's performance against Johnson with Froch's just last fight.
